Oops I forgot how annoying comics fans on Twitter are during NYCC. I should probably just delete that app.

I wish I could stay at The Avengers Academy Forever”

Our themes for the next few months. (We made our decision for our January Marathon we’re reading Generation X)

In November we’re talking Mutant extended family, like Namor, Big Bertha and the GLA, Ms. Marvel, and Gwenpool

In December it’s the naughty and nice list. Some of the best books of the year and some Patreon requests along with, not bad books but characters behaving badly

In January we’re reading all of Generation X vol 1 AND vol 2

Got to read an early copy of Ten Ton Titan Terrier by @peposed.bsky.social and @ornitoplatypus.bsky.social it’s so fun, so full of joy. The art gives you a fresh take on Saturday morning cartoons. I teach middle school students who would love this, but it’s def for all ages. Out TODAY! #comicsky

The cover of Ten-Ton Titan Terrier out TODAY at your Local Comic Shop!

Thank you all so much.

AVENGERS ACADEMY:

Warning! Major spoilers for #60 follow...please do not swipe til after reading this week's issue.

And so we come to the end.

It has I confess come upon us sooner than we thought and more sudden than we hoped – but that, I suppose, is the nature of all life’s endings.

[section of thanks abridged for character limit]

Comics will mend your heart, if you let them. When I was a scared, lonely, closeted kid, the Marvel universe’s heroes were there for me when very little else was. That is a debt I can never pay back, but one I’ve tried with great travail to pay forward. I want to believe we have afforded a little of that same refuge to those who sought it. I hope you saw yourself; please know you were seen. Til we all meet again (and may it be soon), may you find each other. May you find yourself. Remember that there’s always time – but waste no time. And what is broken is still beautiful.

Above all, remember love. It is all that lasts.

Anthony Oliveira

someone asked this on the other app. thought i’d share here

@meakoopa
they were all plotted (some more than others). intention was when we got word we'd trigger the Reaper final arc (finale issue 70). But til then/ when renewed, these were the arcs we were doing.
Next arc was gonna be Brielle/Blackheart journeying to Hell, then Qaari's Six heist.

Out of curiosity, were the snippets teased possible future storylines or purely fun little "what ifs?" Particularly compelled by the Megazord full of children and the gothic tableau with Bloodscapade, Apostate, Jacks Chopra, and Loki.

THANK YOU!
With the incredible number of 60 issues, we have reached the end of the adventure.
Whenever I finish a series, I have mixed feelings: happy because we have managed to complete a new comic that people can enjoy;…

When given the opportunity, I will always add an Utena reference

Panel from Avengers Academy #60 featuring escapade and bloodline dramatically reaching for the tusk of ratatoskir stake. They are in the same pose as Anthy and Utena in the next image. Above bloodline is apostate, conflicted in her feelings, reaching towards Brielle. Below escapade is Jamie Chopra the Black Knight reaching towards Shela with longingly. Large and Above them all is Lady Loki appearingly at the helm of all this choas

Screenshot of the opening sequence of Revolutionary Girl Utena, featuring Anthy and Utena reaching out for each other as they are being pulled away by unseen forces. The same poses that Escapade and Bloodline are in in the previous image

Three panels to sum up my thoughts on the end of Avengers Academy ahead of tomorrow’s episode. #comicsky

Academy Babies “all the zany action, none of the gay stuff! Because there’s advertisers to appease!”

Normie says I wish I could stay as Avengers Academy Forever

M’Krann tells Kid Immortus that even if they are forgotten, she loved every minute of telling this story.

Comics fandom is actually four separate hobbies (craft based fandom, character based fandom, collecting, and stan-ing) and it is this dynamic that makes it difficult to discuss comics, outside of very specific circles, online. Also we should be harder on the most toxic elements of this hobby.

Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?
